TopQuadrant Adds to the Semantic Web Environment


By Jeff Feinman
June 1, 2007 — 
The semantic Web is getting a lot of attention because it allows the easier integration of information, provides ways to combine diversely sourced data, and offers a language for recording data relationships. But one company has done more than write white papers.

Semantic Web technology provider TopQuadrant added two pieces to its TopBraid suite, completing the application development and deployment environment. TopQuadrant on May 21 shipped TopBraid Live, an application deployment platform, and TopBraid Ensemble, a collaborative information management application.

The company calls TopBraid Live a semantic Web platform, based on Resource Description Framework, the SPARQL query language, and Web Ontology Language. TopBraid Live incorporates information from sources as varied as databases, GRDDL (Gleaning Resource Descriptions from Dialects of Languages) documents, RSS feeds and spreadsheets. It also has a library of AJAX-based components, including calendars, charts and maps.

TopBraid Ensemble offers forms for creating and managing semantic content in its role as a collector of management information. The tool offers multi-user collaboration, and facilitates ontology-based searches of shared content. Ontologies represent concepts such as classes and instances, their attributes and the relationships between them.
